Scammers sophistication technique have reached a new apex, making Banking Fraud just like a walk in the park to this crime syndicates with richer background helter-skelters depositors and has been keeping most retirees that reinvested most of their retirement plan sleepless after words of the threat that swept the streets does not seem to have not weakened at all.
Masses are appealing for a more stringent countermeasure to be in place as soon as possible, such are adding more authentication request. Although retina scanner can slow down the process with the amount or rather the size of the data, but it also gives us an opportunity of having time to lockout perpetrators. The size of the data makes it at least 70% better than an iris scan and many more folds multiplied compared to a fingerprint.
Several years ago, I foresaw that the mCommerce (mobile commerce) would be ruled out as the mainstay of electronic processing for the sole reason that it is the most affordable business appliance that can serve the majority, representing the poor to medium class and the trending plot of global economic structure just like a triangle.
Having mCommerce | Mobile Technology as our economic transport offers the possibility of catering and adding the biggest chunk of our global population to pitch in the global trade for us to achieve having reserves and surplus will be more conceivable.
To make it a little impenetrable and globally under tighter scrutiny, I proposed that we adopt the universal identification system. We will integrate every other form of identity attached to it using our mobile number as the key index that will permanently our lifetime phone number. In the event of loss, the telco will make a SIM based on a secret code given to the subscriber upon the receipt of your subscription and issuance, which will be honored and will be service by other Telcos if subscriber opt to change carrier. The number coding of telcos should also compliment tracking effort, narrowed down within the radius and range of a few kilometers apart where the last signal was received or transmitted. The succeeding successful connection recorded by cell sites would enable us to speculate the linear direction as it trends.
We will enable the mobile technology to be a conduit of payment gateways or as a payment gateway itself. Our objective is to open the global trade and cover a larger scope and as far-reaching it could service most specially the marginalized poor a chance to lift their social status getting connected and finally be able to join our bandwagon to the brighter future. The fact can't be denied that they have been left without an adequate means to tap the convenience and business opportunity through eCommerce. Through the mobile payment gateway, even in the absence of a banking system in their region, they can now fulfill the checkout process by loading or charging it from your telco which is even less intricate than having a debit card or as to many known financial credibility.

Sam made himself and Dean don goofy outfits to go investigate the death of some poor girl who died the previous week. You were dressed as their supervisor, so you didn’t have to dress like the third Imagination Mover.
“You know, I’ve gotta say Dad and me did just fine without these stupid costumes,” Dean complained. “I feel like a high school drama dork. What was that play that you did? What was it— Our Town. Yeah, you were good, it was cute.”
“You did theater?” you asked Sam.
“Look, you wanna pull this off or not?” The brunet changed the subject.
“I’m just sayin’, these outfits cost hard-earned money, okay?”
“Whose?” You gave Dean a look.
“Ours. You think credit card fraud is easy?”
***
The landlady of the young woman’s apartment building let you into the deceased’s room. She called the alarm company as useful as “boobs on a man.” She explained how Meredith had been found in pieces scattered around the apartment. The landlady said there had been no signs of break in, and allowed you and the Winchesters to check the apartment out for a bit.
“So, a killer walks in and out of the apartment—no weapons, no prints, nothin’,” Dean said.
“I’m tellin’ ya, the minute I found that article, I knew this was our kind of gig,” Sam replied.
The EMF meter Dean was holding beeped rapidly.
“I definitely agree with you,” you chimed in.
“So, you talked to the cops?” Sam asked his brother.
Dean smirked. “I spoke to Amy, a, uh, charming, perky officer of the law.”
You ignored the way your heart squeezed in your chest. “Yeah? What’d you find out?” You did your best not to let on the emotional storm he was sending you into.
“Well, she’s a Sagittarius,” he said dreamily. “She loves tequila, I mean— wow. Oh, and she’s got this little tattoo—”
“Dean!” Sam cut his brother off.
“What? Yeah. Uh, nothin’ we don’t already know. Except for one thing they’re keepin’ out of the papers. Meredith’s heart was missing.”
“Her heart?” the younger brother sounded stunned. “So, what do you think did it to her?”
“Well, the landlady said it looked like an animal attack. Maybe it was— werewolf?”
You shook your head. “No, the lunar cycle’s not right. Plus, if it was a creature or somethin’, it would’ve left some kind of trace. It’s gotta be a spirit.”
Dean looked down at the blood stains on the white carpet and seemed to notice something. “Sam, see if you can find any masking tape.” His idea of taping the space between the splotches of blood like a twisted connect-the-dots revealed a strange symbol on the ground that looked like an “S” with a small circle cutting through the middle of it.
***
You were gulping down beers like there was no tomorrow and trying to peel your eyes away from Dean flirting with the gorgeous bartender. You and Sam were sitting at an empty table and leafing through his father’s journal.
“(Y/N), if you stare any harder at him, you’re gonna burst a blood vessel.”
You looked over at Sam. “Shut up.”
“You like him, huh?”
“What am I, five? No, I don’t like him,” you responded.
He gave you a knowing look. “C’mon, (Y/N/N), don’t lie to me.”
You sighed, taking a big gulp of your drink first. “I don’t know, man. I’m not good with feelings.”
Before Sam could respond, Dean was back over at your table. “I talked to the bartender,” he grinned.
“Did you get anything? Besides her number?” Sam asked.
Dean scrunched his face up. “Dude, I’m a professional. I’m offended that you would think that.” Sam gave him a look, and Dean bashfully held up a napkin with the bartender’s number on it in response.
“You mind doin’ a little bit of thinking with your upstairs brain, Dean?” you asked.
“Huh? Look, there’s nothing to find out. I mean, Meredith worked here, she waited tables, everyone here was her friend. Everybody said she was normal. She didn’t do or say anything weird before she died, so— what about that symbol, you find anything?”
The younger brother shook his head. “Nope, nothing. It wasn’t in Dad’s journal or in any of the usual books. I just have to dig a little deeper, I guess.”
“Well, there was a first victim, right? Before Meredith?” you brought up.
“His name was, uh, his name was Ben Swardstrom.” He pulled a newspaper clipping out of the journal and handed it to Dean, “Last month he was found mutilated in his town house. Same deal; the door was locked, the alarm was on.”
“Is there any connection between the two of them?”
“Not that I can tell—I mean, not yet, at least. Ben was a banker, Meredith was a waitress. They never met, never knew anyone in common—they were practically from different worlds.”
“So, to recap, the only successful intel we’ve scored so far is the bartender’s phone number," the younger brother deadpanned.
Dean smirked at you and Sam, and you tried to ignore the sinking feeling in your stomach. Sam seemed to notice something on the other side of the room.
“What?” you asked.
Without answering you, Sam got up from the table and headed past his brother. You followed him to a table where a blonde woman with short hair sat.
“Meg?” he asked.
You furrowed your eyebrows as the woman turned around and exclaimed, “Sam! Is that you? Oh, my god! What are you doing here?” She gave him a hug, and you could see on Sam’s face that he was confused.
“I’m just in town, visiting friends,” he lied.
The young woman looked around. “Where are they?”
You stepped up from his side. “Me!” you lied. “Nice to meet you. I’m (Y/N).”
She gave you a smile, “Yeah, I remember, Sam told me about you.”
You turned to the younger Winchester. “He did?”
“Yeah, of course,” Sam answered. “Meg, what are you doing here? I thought you were going to California.”
Dean came up between you and Sam; eyes raking over Meg’s body.
“Oh, I did. I came, I saw, I conquered. Oh, and I met what’s-his-name, something Michael Murray at a bar,” she explained.
Sam looked confused. “Who?”
“Oh, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, the whole scene got old, so I’m living here for a while,” she shrugged.
Dean cleared his throat loudly, but was ignored.
“You’re from Chicago?” Sam questioned.
“No, Massachusetts. Andover. Gosh, Sam, what are the odds we’d run into each other?” The grin she gave unsettled you.
“Yeah, I know, I thought I’d never see you again.”
Dean cleared his throat again, earning a “Dude, cover your mouth,” from Meg.
Sam chuckled awkwardly. “Yeah, um, I’m sorry, Meg. This is, uh— this is my brother, Dean.”
She looked surprised. “This is Dean?”
“So, you’ve heard of me?” Dean gave her a salacious grin.
“Oh, yeah. I’ve heard of you. Nice; the way you treat your brother like luggage,” she said harshly.
“Sorry?” Dean was stunned and so were you.
The woman didn't let up, and if it weren't for your horrible gut feeling, the two of you would likely be good friends. “Why don’t you let him do what he wants to do? Stop dragging him over god’s green earth.”
“Meg, it’s alright,” Sam said.
Dean whistled lowly. “Okay, awkward. I’m gonna get a drink now. C’mon, (Y/N).”
“Don’t have to tell me twice.” And with that, you bounded off to the bar with him. “What’s with that chick?”
Dean shook his head. “I don’t know. Weird, right?”
“Yeah, completely,” you responded.
The older Winchester motioned at the pretty bartender he’d spoken to earlier for two beers.
“Sam ever mention her?” you asked him. “They seemed pretty chummy.”
“Why, you jealous?”
You scoffed. “No way. He reminds me too much of my brother. Freud would be rolling in his grave if I was. She’s just… bizarre.”
“Yeah, tell me about it,” he grumbled, sipping his beer.
Sam came over to you and told you it was time to go.
“What, why?” you asked.
“Just… come on, (Y/N/N),” Sam responded. He dragged the two of you out of the bar after you and Dean chugged your beers quickly.
“Who the hell was she?” Dean questioned as you crossed the street outside of the bar.
“I don’t really know. I only met her once. Meeting up with her again? I don’t know, man, it’s weird.”
“Yeah, she seemed to really know you,” you said. “You said you only met her once?”
He nodded.
“And what was she saying? I treat you like luggage? What, were you bitchin’ about me to some chick?” Dean’s tone was on-guard immediately.
“Look, I’m sorry, Dean. It was when we had that huge fight when I was in that bus stop in Indiana. But that’s not important, just listen—”
“Well, is there any truth to what she’s saying? I mean, am I keeping you against your will, Sam?”
Sam stopped his brother. “No, of course not. Now, would you listen? I think there’s somethin’ strange going on here, guys.”
“Yeah, tell me about it,” Dean muttered. “She wasn’t even that into me.”
You elbowed him sharply. “Upstairs brain, please.”
“I mean like, our kind of strange.” Sam ignored his brother’s comment. “Like, maybe even a lead.”
“What makes you say that?” you asked.
“I met Meg weeks ago, literally on the side of the road. And now, I run into her in some random Chicago bar? I mean, the same bar where a waitress was slaughtered by something supernatural? You don’t think that’s a little weird?”
“Well, yeah,” you said. “But I think I would’ve noticed if she was following us.”
“Yeah, okay, Nancy Drew,” Dean chided.
“Listen, dickhead, I’m very observant,” you responded playfully.
“Guys, can we focus, please? Look, I could be wrong, I’m just sayin’ that there’s something about this girl that I can’t quite put my finger on,” Sam continued.
“Well, I bet you’d like to. I mean, maybe she’s not a suspect, maybe you’ve got a thing for her, huh?” Dean’s grin was widening by the second.
Sam rolled his eyes and you laughed.
“Maybe you’re thinkin’ a little too much with your upstairs brain, huh?” Dean pointed to his head and then down to his groin.
Sam gave the two of you a bitchface. “Do me a favor. Check and see if there’s really a Meg Masters from Andover, Massachusetts, and see if you can’t dig anything up on that symbol on Meredith’s floor.”
“What are you gonna do?” Dean asked him.
“I’m gonna watch Meg.”
The older brother laughed. “Yeah, you are.”
“I just wanna see what’s what. Better safe than sorry.”
“Alright, you little pervert.” Dean continued walking.
“Dude!”
“We’re goin’, we’re goin’.”
“Bye, Sam!” you called over your shoulder. You and Dean walked a few blocks down to Sam and Dean’s motel room and set to work searching for Meg Masters from Andover, Massachusetts.
***
About thirty minutes later, Sam called you. “Hey.” You continued clicking through pages on your computer.
“Finding anything?” he asked.
“Yeah, she checks out. High school yearbook picture and everything.”
Dean took your phone from you. “Let me guess. You’re lurkin’ outside that poor girl’s apartment, aren’t you?... You’ve got a funny way of showin’ your affection. Now, look, why don’t you go knock on her door and, uh, invite her to a poetry reading, or whatever it is you do, huh?... Yeah, that (Y/N) did have some luck with. It’s, uh, turns out it’s very, very old school, like two thousand years before Christ. It’s a sigil for a Daeva.”
Dean handed the phone back to you. “He’s lookin’ for a nerd definition. You’re better with that than I am.”
You rolled your eyes. “ 'Daeva' translates to ‘demon of darkness’. They’re Zoroastrian demons, and they’re freakin’ animals, dude. Dean said they’re demonic pitbulls.”
“How’d you figure that out?”
“Google, man. It’s a magical place.”
He laughed.
“Oh, one more thing!” you gasped. “These Daevas, they have to be summoned; conjured.”
Sam sounded surprised. “So, someone’s controlling it?”
“Yeah, that’s what I’m sayin’. And, from what I gather, it’s pretty risky business, too. These bitches tend to bite the hand that feeds them.”
“And, uh, the arms, and torsos,” Dean quipped loud enough for his brother to hear.
“So, what do they look like?” Sam asked you.
“Nobody knows. I mean, summoning a demon that ancient? We’ve definitely got a major player in town.”
Dean took the phone back from you. “Now, why don’t you go give that girl a private strip-o-gram?... No, bite her. Don’t leave teeth marks, though— Sam? Are you—?” He took your phone away from his ear. “He hung up.”
“Yeah, you fucking perv. You know he’s a total prude,” you snickered. “I’m kind of exhausted, if I’m being honest. Do you mind if I sleep here for a bit?” you asked him, referring to his bed that you were lounging on.
He shrugged. “Go right ahead. I’ll wake you up when Sam’s back.”
“Thanks. Night, Dee.”
“Night, sweetheart.”
You rolled away from him, sighing contentedly. You brought the covers up around your neck, and Dean's scent engulfed you as you did so.
You often found yourself unable to rest when you were alone in your room. Some part of you was still afraid of your father bursting into your room at four in the morning to go run drills if he was disappointed in your performance from the day before. And if sleep did grace you, it was normally hours of tossing and turning before you could finally turn your brain off. But somehow, this man you were just beginning to know made you feel safe enough to drift off in minutes.
***
You awoke to Dean lightly shaking you awake. You snapped into fight or flight and gripped his wrist, shooting up from the bed.
“Whoa, whoa, relax. It’s just me,” he told you.
“Sorry,” you said, cheeks burning. “Hey, Sam.”
Sam proceeded to explain what he’d seen after following Meg into a warehouse.
“So, hot little Meg is summoning the Daeva?” Dean quipped.
“Looks like she was using that black altar to control the thing,” Sam responded.
“So, Sammy’s got a thing for the bad girl,” he chuckled. “And what’s the deal with that bowl again?”
“She was talking into it. The way witches used to scry into crystal balls or animal entrails. She was communicating with someone.”
“With who? With the Daeva?”
The younger man shook his head. “No, (Y/N) said those things were savages. No, this was someone different. Someone who’s giving her orders. Someone who’s comin’ to that warehouse.”
Dean thought for a moment and then looked over some of the papers the two of you had spread out on the table. “Holy crap.”
“What?” You jumped out of bed and walked over to him.
“What I was gonna tell Sam earlier—I pulled a favor with my—” he cleared his throat— “friend, Amy, over at the police department. The complete records of the two victims— we missed something the first time.”
“What?”
“The first victim, the old man— he spent his whole life in Chicago, but he wasn’t born here. Look where he was born.” He pointed to a spot on the page.
“Lawrence,” you breathed.
Dean continued to shuffle through files. “Meredith, second victim? Turns out she was adopted. And guess where she’s from.”
“Holy crap,” Sam muttered. “I mean, it is where the demon killed Mom. That’s where everything started. So, you think Meg’s tied up with the demon?”
“I think it’s a definite possibility,” the older brother answered.
“But I don’t understand. What’s the significance of Lawrence? And how do these Daeva things fit in?” Sam questioned.
“Beats me. But I say we trash that black altar, grab Meg, and have ourselves a friendly little interrogation.”
“No, we can’t. We shouldn’t tip her off. We’ve gotta stake out that warehouse. We’ve gotta see who, or what, is showin’ up to meet her.” Sam pulled a hand through his hair and began to pace.
“I’ll tell you one thing. I don’t think we should do this alone,” Dean said.
“Dean, do you even think your dad will answer?” you asked him, knowing what he meant.
He didn’t answer but told you, “You and Sam go stake out the trunk. Get me somethin’ good.”
You nodded. “C’mon, Sam.”
You grabbed anything and everything out of the trunk that could’ve been remotely useful. Holy water, numerous weapons, and different books containing dozens of different exorcism rituals.
When you returned to the room, Dean was talking to who you deduced was his father on the phone. “We think we’ve got a serious lead on the thing that killed Mom. So, uh, this warehouse—it’s 1435 West Erie. Dad, if you get this, get to Chicago as soon as you can.”
“Voicemail?” you questioned.
He nodded. He gestured to the stuffed duffel bags you and Sam were holding. “Jesus, what’d you get?”
“We ransacked the trunk,” Sam explained and listed off all the things you had grabbed.
Dean nodded and breathed deeply. “Big night.”
“Yeah. You nervous?” the younger brother asked.
“No. Why, are you?”
“No. No way.” He was silent for a moment. “God, could you imagine if we actually found that damn thing? That demon?”
“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, alright?”
“I know. I’m just sayin’, what if we did? What if this whole thing was over tonight? Man, I’d sleep for a month. Go back to school— be a person again.”
“You wanna go back to school?” you asked Sam.
“Yeah, once we’re done huntin’ the thing,” he answered.
You felt slightly saddened. “Oh.”
“Why, is there somethin’ wrong with that?”
“No, no! It’s, uh, great. I’m proud of you,” you told him.
“I mean, what are you two gonna do when it’s all over?” Sam asked.
“It’s never gonna be over,” Dean answered. “There’s gonna be others. There’s always gonna be somethin’ to hunt.” He looked to you. “And I’m gonna need a new hunting partner if Sam’s not gonna be around… so…”
You gave him a lopsided smile.
Sam continued prodding. “But there’s got to be somethin’ that you want for yourself—”
Dean cut his brother off. “Yeah, I don’t want you to leave the second this thing’s over, Sam.” He turned away.
“Dude, what’s your problem?”
“Why do you think I drag you everywhere? Huh?” Dean asked his brother rhetorically. “I mean, why do you think I came and got you at Stanford in the first place?”
“ ‘Cause Dad was in trouble. ‘Cause you wanted to find the thing that killed Mom.” Sam looked confused.
“Yes, that, but it’s more than that, man. You and me and Dad— I mean, I want us… I want us to be together again. I want us to be a family again.”
Sam’s tone softened. “Dean, we are a family. I’d do anything for you. But things will never be the way they were before.”
Dean looked heartbroken, and yours ached for him, too. “Could be.”
“I don’t want them to be. I'm not gonna live this life forever. Dean, when this is all over, you’re gonna have to let me go my own way.”
You watched Sam with sad eyes, but you and Dean said nothing as you left the room to head to the warehouse.
***
You carefully climbed your way up the elevator shaft hearing Meg’s melodic voice talking in a language you couldn’t recognize getting louder and louder as you ascended. You tried your best not to make much noise while you climbed; a feat the brothers seemed to have trouble with.
You peeked over the cement slab that made up the seventh floor of the warehouse. Meg’s back was turned to you and she continued speaking into the goblet she was holding. Sam quietly pulled the gate open just wide enough for you and the brothers to slip through. The three of you headed behind two of the support posts of the warehouse. You drew your guns from your jeans and steadied your breath to attack her.
“Guys,” Meg spoke; never turning around.
You looked at the brothers in shock.
“Hiding’s a little bit childish, don’t you think?” her smooth voice continued.
“Well, that didn’t work out like I planned,” Dean muttered to you. You would have laughed had it not been for your situation.
Meg turned and her boots clacked on the floor as she approached you. “Why don’t you come out?”
You slowly moved from behind the crates.
“Sam, I have to say, this puts a real crimp in our relationship,” she snarled.
“Yeah, tell me about it.”
“So, where’s your little Daeva friend?” you asked her.
“Around,” she sing-songed. “You know, that shotgun’s not gonna do much good.”
“Oh, don’t worry, sweetheart. The shotgun’s not for the demon,” Dean responded. You could hear the smirk in his voice.
“So, who is it, Meg? Who’s coming? Who are you waiting for?” Sam jumped in.
“You,” she smiled. Just behind her on her left, you saw shadows beginning to form in the shape of demons in flowing, tattered robes on the wall.
Before you knew it, you were knocked to the ground, screaming in pain as something slashed your right cheek and left shoulder. It was proving difficult to fight something you couldn’t see. You screamed in pain again as you felt a slash across your thigh, and whited out from the pain.
When you came to, your hands were bound behind your back. You struggled against your restraints as Dean spoke. “Hey, Sam? Don’t take this the wrong way, but your girlfriend… is a bitch.”
Dean had been tied on your right side; backs against the sides of the cement post.
“This, the whole thing, was a trap,” Sam figured out. “Running into you at the bar, following you here, hearin’ what you had to say. It was all a set-up, wasn’t it?”
Meg laughed.
“And that the victims were from Lawrence?” Sam continued.
“It doesn’t mean anything. It was just to draw you in, that’s all,” the blonde smiled.
“You killed those two people for nothin’.”
“Baby, I’ve killed a lot more for a lot less,” she replied smugly.
“You trapped us. Good for you. It’s Miller time.” You could hear the smile in the older brother’s voice. “But why don’t you kill us already?”
You thought for a second. “Because it’s not a trap for us. It’s a trap for John.”
Meg tsked at the brothers. “I like her. She’s a lot quicker on the uptake.”
“Oh, sweetheart, you’re dumber than you look,” Dean told her. “ 'Cause even if Dad was in town, which he is not, he wouldn’t walk into something like this. He’s too good.”
Meg approached Dean and straddled his legs. “He is pretty good. I’ll give you that. But you see, he has one weakness.”
“What’s that?” the older brother winced uncomfortably. You strained against your restraints even more, trying to be able to get to Dean.
You could see Meg leaning closer to Dean, her voice somehow becoming even more sultry. “You. He lets his guard down around his boys, lets his emotions cloud his judgment. I happen to know he is in town. And he’ll come and try to save you. And then the Daevas will kill everybody— nice and slow and messy.”
Dean’s voice strained in discomfort. “Well, I’ve got news for ya. It’s gonna take a lot more than some… shadow to kill him.”
“Oh, the Daevas are in the room here—they’re invisible. Their shadows are just the only part you can see,” she explained.
“Why you doin’ this, Meg? What kind of deal you got worked out here, huh? And with who?” Sam asked her.
“I’m doing this for the same reasons you do what you do: loyalty. Love. Like the love you had for Mommy and Jess.”
“Go to hell,” he responded.
“Baby, I’m already there.” She slid over to Sam and straddled him. “C’mon, Sam, there’s no need to be nasty.”
You didn’t like the full show you were being given of Meg leaning into his ear and ghosting her lips over his neck. “I think we both know how you really feel about me. You know, I saw you watching me— changing in my apartment. Turned you on, didn’t it?”
“Ew, Sam!” you scolded him.
“Get a room, you two,” Dean grumbled simultaneously.
“I didn’t mind. I liked that you were watching me. Come on, Sammy. You and I can still have a little dirty fun.” Meg kissed up his neck.
“You wanna have fun? Go ahead then. I’m a little tied up right now,” Sam responded.
She smiled and continued to kiss him. She stopped when she heard something from your side of the room. She stalked over to yours and Dean’s post and took the knife from his hand, tossing it into a corner. Meg walked back over to Sam. “Now, were you just trying to distract me while your brother cuts free?”
“No, no,” he told her. “That’s because I have a knife of my own.” She seemed confused until he broke free and knocked his head against hers; sending her to the floor.
“Sam! Get the altar!” you instructed.
He ran over to it and aggressively turned it over. Before you knew it, Meg was sent flying out of the warehouse’s window and to the ground below. Sam came back over to you two and cut you free. You headed over to the window to see Meg’s dead body sprawled over the ground. “So, I guess the Daevas didn’t like being bossed around,” Sam remarked.
“Yeah, I guess not. Hey, Sam?” Dean said. “Next time you wanna get laid, find a girl that’s not so buckets-o’-crazy, huh?”
***
You and the boys returned to their motel room so you could patch each other up and recover. You weren’t so convinced that your run-in with the Daevas was over and brought the duffel bag inside with you.
“Why didn’t you just leave that stuff in the car?” Dean asked you.
“Better safe than sorry,” you shrugged.
The older Winchester unlocked the door before you and you entered the room. You noticed the silhouette of a burly man standing by the window. You flipped on the light while Dean exclaimed, “Hey!”
The man turned around, and your jaw nearly fell to the floor at the sight of the scruffy, tanned man before you.
“Dad?” Dean breathed out.
John smiled. “Hey, boys.” He and his oldest son walked toward each other and shared a long hug. You smiled at them sadly. When they pulled away, John turned to his youngest. “Hi, Sam.” They shared a long look before John turned to you. “Didn’t think I’d see you again after Jericho,” he told you.
You responded, “I didn’t think I’d see your boys again after Jericho, either.”
John gave you a half-smile. “Thank you. For looking after them.”
You nodded in acknowledgement.
“Dad, it was a trap. I didn’t know; I’m sorry,” Dean began.
“It’s alright. I thought it might’ve been.”
“Were you there?” Dean asked.
“Yeah, I got there just in time to see the girl take the swan dive. She was the bad guy, right?”
“Yes, sir,” the boys answered their father.
“Good. Well, it doesn’t surprise me. It’s tried to stop me before,” John sighed. “It knows I’m close. It knows I’m gonna kill it. Not just exorcise it or send it back to hell. Actually kill it.”
“How?” you asked.
“I’m workin’ on that,” the older man responded.
“Let us come with you. We’ll help,” Sam urged.
John’s tone hardened. “No, Sam. Not yet. Just try to understand. This demon is a scary son of a bitch. I don’t want you caught in a crossfire. I don’t want you hurt.”
Sam shook his head. “Dad, you don’t have to worry about us.”
“Of course I do. I’m your father.” He paused. “Listen, Sammy, last time we were together, we had one hell of a fight.”
“Yes, sir,” Sam nodded.
“It’s good to see you again. It’s been a long time.”
“Too long.” Tears formed in Sam’s eyes as he finally hugged his father.
Suddenly, you were thrown across the room by an invisible force, something clawing at your back.
“No!” Dean yelled before he was thrown down next to you.
Deep claw marks formed on a number of parts of your body— your legs, arms, face, stomach— everywhere.
“Shut your eyes!” Sam yelled over the chaos. “These things are shadow demons, so let’s light ‘em up!” Suddenly, a bright light began to fill the room.
You and the three men fumbled your way around trying to feel your way out of the room.
“(Y/N)!” Dean called to you while Sam called to his father.
“I’m here!” you told him. You felt his arms around you pulling you out of the room. Your leg protested and made you yelp in pain. You knew Dean was hurting, too, and you tried your best to continue moving forward.
“(Y/N), let me help you!” Dean urged you as you continued to stumble out of the room.
“No!” you said, but Dean swept you up anyway. “Dean!” He carried you out of the room and toward the car. You finally gave in and wound your arms around his neck. When he put you down in the backseat, you held your leg and groaned in pain.
“Alright, come on,” Sam said. “We don’t have much time. As soon as the flare’s out, they’ll be back.” Sam moved to get in the car, too.
“Wait, wait, wait! Sam, wait. Dad, you can’t come with us.”
Sam huffed. “What? What are you talkin’ about?”
“You boys— you’re beat to hell,” John protested.
“We’ll be alright,” Dean answered.
“Dean, we should stick together. We’ll go after those demons—”
Dean turned to his brother. “Sam! Listen to me! We almost got Dad killed in there. Don’t you understand? They’re not gonna stop. They’re gonna try again. They’re gonna use us to get to him. I mean, Meg was right. Dad’s vulnerable when he’s with us. He— he’s stronger without us around.”
“Dad, no—” Sam put a hand on his father’s shoulder. “After everything— after all the time we spent lookin’ for you, please. I gotta be a part of this fight.”
“Sammy, this fight is just starting. And we are all gonna have a part to play. For now, you’ve got to trust me, son—”
Sam shook his head as his father continued to speak.
“—Okay, you’ve gotta let me go,” John told him. Finally, Sam patted his father’s shoulder and allowed him to move away.
The three of you watched as got in his truck and drove off. You knew Dean was right, but it was so bizarre to let this man you spent so much time looking for leave just like that.
“Come on,” Dean told his brother. And with that, the three of you were off to god-knows-where to lick your wounds and get a hopefully decent amount of sleep.

I drove home so I could muster up the energy to call Amazon and my bank about charges that I did not make (make sure to regularly check your bank account credit card whatevers) so first I called Amazon to be like I didn’t make these charges and Amazon was like this is a mistaken charge, we’re not gonna call it fraud until you call your bank and set them on us (I don’t have an Amazon account, I’ve never use this card on an Amazon account). Then I called the number on my card foolishly thinking that that was what I was supposed to do and I went through the automated menu and ended up had an automated message saying the bank was not open (even though I specifically use the menu for disputing a charge). So then I looked up online how to dispute a charge and the official bank website said that I could do it from the app by going to the transaction and hitting report a problem. The option did not exist on the app. But it did exist on the mobile site and when I clicked report a problem, it popped up a window that was a different phone number. And I called that number and a representative answered. Puzzle ass system

Dar Leaf and Richard Mack don’t seem like they would pose a threat to US democracy.
Leaf, a sheriff from Barry County, Michigan, always has at least two pens clipped neatly to his shirt pocket and speaks softly with a Midwestern accent. When we meet at an April event in Las Vegas, Nevada, Leaf is immaculately dressed in a sheriff’s uniform, replete with the polished gold star.
Mack also wears a gold star—even though he’s no longer a sheriff. But in the Ahern Hotel ballroom in Vegas, Mack played the part. In a ten-gallon hat, Mack was genial; shaking hands with guests, joking with vendors, and taking selfies with supporters.
This wasn’t an average get-together. Leaf and Mack were at a conference for the far-right Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, or CSPOA, a group described by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an anti-government organization with links to many other extremist groups. Constitutional sheriffs are actual elected sheriffs who also believe they are the ultimate legal power in their county, and that no federal or state authority can usurp their authority. They also believe that a sheriff’s power stems directly from the constitution, and that they can disregard any laws they deem unconstitutional—a belief that is not grounded in reality.
Leaf is on the board of the group; Mack is the founder. And there are hundreds of members around the country.
In Las Vegas, Mack referred supporters and journalists to Leaf, who was, he said, “doing more than anyone to uncover election interference” in his role as sheriff.
A staunch Trump supporter, Leaf has spent the last four years investigating voter fraud in the 2020 federal election in Barry County—even though Donald Trump won decisively there. He has attempted to seize voting machines, pushed wild conspiracies, and ultimately became the focus of state investigations himself. In at least one case, Leaf appears to have inspired an election official to refuse to verify a vote—an ominous warning ahead of the 2024 US election.
The conspiracies have also taken a physical turn: According to emails shared exclusively with WIRED by the nonprofit group American Oversight, Leaf has run a militia training course advising “potential jurors, homeschoolers, ladies and gentlemen” to “get a standard AR-15 type military grade weapon” and “500 rounds of ammo.” The emails also show that, ahead of the most consequential election in a generation, Leaf is in regular contact with a wide variety of election conspiracists.
Leaf and a number of his colleagues in the Constitutional Sheriff movement say that they have “posses” to patrol polling stations, monitor for “illegal” immigrant voters, and help sheriffs respond to reports of fraud—or anything else—on election day.
Mack, meanwhile, has been the driving force behind the modern day Constitutional Sheriffs movement. In the last six months, Mack’s group has mobilized across the US, building relationships with powerful figures close to Trump, training armed militias, and laying out plans for when Democrats inevitably, in their view, try to steal the election. They’re laying the groundwork to challenge the outcome of next month’s vote—and recruiting sheriffs to help them assert control if Trump loses.
“In a swing state like Michigan or Wisconsin, where the difference in the state's outcome is 50,000 to 70,000 votes, if a sheriff becomes an obstacle, then that could undermine that state's credibility, says Will Pelfrey, a professor of criminal justice and homeland security at Virginia Commonwealth University. “In a swing state, that could undermine the entire national election.”
A WIRED investigation reviewed hundreds of documents and conducted dozens of interviews over the course of the last six months. We found that the Constitutional Sheriff movement believes it is the last line of defense to protect American elections. At conferences in Las Vegas and Florida, as well as online in group chats and Zoom meetings, their discussions often turn to how sheriffs can utilize their unique power in order to, they say, safeguard democracy.
For years, sheriffs like Leaf who believe they have unlimited power to interpret and enforce the laws of the land have operated on the fringes. But as the election approaches, they have been increasingly empowered by those close to Trump and are more committed than ever to ensuring a Republican victory up and down the ballot. At all costs.
Today, one in four sworn law enforcement officers in the US report to a sheriff. In addition to running county jails, sheriffs and their deputies make approximately 20 percent of all arrests in the nation, according to one estimate, translating to around 2 million arrests every year. In nearly one in three US counties, sheriff departments are the largest law enforcement agency, meaning sheriff’s offices are the primary law enforcement agency for 56 million people.
“Sheriffs are really beholden to nobody,” says Pelfrey. “Once elected, a sheriff has tremendous power, and there have been sheriffs who have been convicted and still hold office. It's a bizarre thing. It shouldn't exist, but sheriffs are not beholden to a governor or to a president, and the only way to enforce state or federal laws for a recalcitrant sheriff is the National Guard. And that's not a viable system.”
At the April event in Las Vegas, Mack worked the room incessantly. Together with Leaf, he built links with the leaders of the election denial movement, discussing and preparing for the recruitment of like-minded citizens to patrol polling stations and stop “illegal” immigrants from voting in the election. The event was a veritable who’s who of the right-wing election denial movement, including former Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne, pillow salesman Mike Lindell, and the de facto leader of the movement, disgraced former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
On stage, Flynn told the sheriffs they have “a huge role and responsibility in this country” and that only their local-level work will halt voter fraud. During his speech, Byrne said that constitutional sheriffs would need to play a vital role in fighting the influx of “15 million military-age men.” He also claimed that a “well-regulated militia is not a dirty phrase” and urged sheriffs in attendance to build “surge capacity” by partnering with local militias.
“The constitutional sheriffs, or any sheriff in this county, have mega power at the county level,” Lindell told WIRED in Las Vegas. He suggested that sheriffs could arrest voters for illegally voting in the wrong county, adding that they could “put a moratorium” on the voting machines if they suspect fraud is taking place. And he cited Leaf, who spoke at the event, as an example that all sheriffs should follow.
“Our job is basically to make sure that my guys are educated on the election laws, start looking for the violations, trying to get the election clerks to start paying attention if somebody drives in and they've got a whole van full of people that look like they're not from around our area, and they can say no and then make them take it through the courts,” Leaf told WIRED that week, referencing the conspiracy that “illegal immigrants” were being relocated over the border by Democrats to sway the election in favor of Kamala Harris.
To make sure his deputies follow his lead, Leaf said he is working with others to produce a guide on how to properly police elections—something he said he was going to share with all sheriffs across the country in time for the US elections.
“The role of the sheriff has always been to maintain the peace, and he's your chief law enforcement officer and chief conservator of the peace of your county,” Leaf said. “And when you get people cheating on elections, that's disturbing the peace. You violated somebody's peace.”
None of these claims of constitutional power and control are true.
“There is no constitutional basis for their claims to power, zero, it's just not in the constitution,” says representative Jamie Raskin, the congressman from Maryland who spent decades working as a constitutional law professor at American University’s Washington College of Law. “County sheriffs have no more sovereign-state political power than municipal police chiefs or mayors or county commissioners. The whole claim is completely fictional. It's a pure fabrication.”
Still, anyone paying attention is nervous: Leaf has publicly defended members of the Wolverine Watchmen militia who plotted to kidnap Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer in 2020. “It’s just a charge, and they say a 'plot to kidnap' and you got to remember that,” he told a local news outlet. “Are they trying to kidnap? Because a lot of people are angry with the governor, and they want her arrested. So are they trying to arrest or was it a kidnap attempt? Because you can still in Michigan, if it’s a felony, you can make a felony arrest.” And he has run an eight-week militia training course, called Awaken Our Constitution’s Sleeping Militia Clauses, that he openly advertised on his Facebook page as recently as January.
The contents of the course, according to emails reviewed by WIRED, are based on a 2010 booklet from Brent Allen Winters, a sovereign-citizen believer, titled “Militia of the Several States,” which outlines a belief that armed militias are granted their power not from the constitution but from God, harking back to a time during the American Revolution when men in some areas were fined for not bringing their guns to church. The booklet even cites the Old Testament as justification for organizing an armed militia.
As Winters and Leaf see it, a member of a militia has two duties: “Armed defense of the land from enemies foreign and defense of the law of the land from enemies domestic.”
In one slide, titled “Do Your Duty,” which was shown to attendees of Leaf’s training course, Winters wrote: “Get started. Get a standard AR-15 type military grade weapon. Get 500 rounds of ammo.”
“There should be militias connected with every sheriff,” Leaf told The Guardian in July.
Experts like Devin Burghart, executive director of the Institute for Research & Education on Human Rights and someone who has closely chronicled the Constitutional Sheriffs movement for years, are also tracking how the organization is now interacting with other extremist, “paramilitary” groups.
”The Vegas CSPOA conference was about more than recruiting far-right sheriffs,” Burghart claims. “It was about plotting a road map for coordinated election interference and insurrection 2.0.”
In the weeks after the 2020 election, Trump and his advisers were scrambling to challenge the election results when a relatively unknown former Army Reserve lieutenant colonel named Ivan Raiklin started tweeting. Raiklin told Trump that he should play the “Pence card” and force then vice president Mike Pence to refuse to certify the results of the election.
While Raiklin cited a real provision of the US legal code, his plan had no basis in law. Trump retweeted and endorsed Raiklin’s plan, and while it ultimately went nowhere, the “Pence card” was a precursor to the Trump internal legal team’s coup memo that laid out a plan for Pence to overturn the election result on January 6, 2021.
Four years later, Raiklin is now a superstar in the world of election denial. Ahead of the 2024 election, he has a new scheme to guarantee Trump’s win. It involves the constitutional sheriffs.
Raiklin has compiled a “Deep State target list” of more than 350 names, reviewed by WIRED, that includes elected Democratic and Republican lawmakers, FBI officials, journalists, members of the House January 6 committee, US Capitol police officers, and witnesses from Trump’s two impeachment trials. His plan is to get constitutional sheriffs to round up those people in livestreamed swatting raids so they can be punished for treason. Raiklin, who is closely connected to Flynn’s organization, also wants sheriffs to “deputize” people into armed militias or “posses” to help facilitate the arrests.
“We have hundreds of thousands that want to participate in retribution,” Raiklin said in a June video interview with Cliven Bundy, a Nevada cattle rancher who became a far-right icon after a dispute in 2014 over grazing fees led to an armed standoff with federal authorities. “Some people call it accountability.”
Raiklin met with Mack at the Las Vegas conference and tried to recruit sheriffs to his cause. In June, Raiklin and Mack met again and had “a good discussion,” according to Mack, who would not expand on what exactly the pair discussed. Raiklin refused to speak to WIRED in Vegas and didn’t answer questions sent afterward.
While Trump has not endorsed the Constitutional Sheriffs movement directly, he has spent recent years courting sheriffs around the country. In September 2018, Trump stood in the White House surrounded by almost four dozen sheriffs. Front and center was Thomas Hodgson, then sheriff of Bristol County in Massachusetts.
Hodgson was there to present Trump with a plaque, and praised him for his “strength of purpose” and “commitment to [his] convictions.” The inscription read in part: “There’s a new sheriff in town.” A supporter of the Constitutional Sheriff movement, Hodgson was tapped by Trump in late 2019 to become an honorary chairman of Trump’s Massachusetts reelection effort.
Trump held around a dozen meetings with sheriffs at the White House during his four years in office, more than any other president—and that’s not counting the regular appearances of sheriffs at Trump rallies and campaign stops. Mark Lamb, a constitutional sheriff from Pinal County, Arizona, spoke at Trump rallies in his home state and in Illinois. Trump also emboldened sheriffs by removing Department of Justice oversight that the Obama administration had put in place and restarting a program to allow sheriffs departments to buy military-grade weapons at discounted prices.
“Trump’s tough-guy, xenophobic, and conspiracy-minded persona gave sheriffs a new model in the White House,” writes Jessica Pishko, author of The Highest Law in the Land: How the Unchecked Power of Sheriffs Threatens Democracy. “Under Trump, constitutional sheriffs had a friend and protector at the highest level of government.”
While Mack’s group is at the forefront of the Constitutional Sheriffs movement, there are many other sheriffs across the US who hold similar beliefs about the power of sheriffs. The movement has also found purchase with other prominent right-wing groups. In 2021, the Sheriff’s Fellowship was launched by the Claremont Institute, an influential far-right think tank involved in the drafting of Project 2025, whose stated goal is to see the US revert to a Christian-centric nation based on principles espoused by the founding fathers. The fellowship, which was funded by Trump’s former secretary of education Betsy DeVos, is a five-day training course in “American political thought and institutions” and has featured multiple self-identified constitutional sheriffs, including Leaf.
The closer constitutional sheriffs get to the mainstream GOP, the more cause for alarm.
“The danger of authoritarian attack on the democratic process is at its peak when you get an alliance between extremist vigilante groups like [the Constitutional Sheriffs] with elements of the actual political system, like a political party,” says Representative Raskin. “That's a dangerous combination if Donald Trump is going to be leading the Republican Party into election denialism and a determination to prevail over the rule of law, and you have violent paramilitary groups backing them up.”
Richard Mack’s law enforcement career began with rejection. “My father had just retired from the Bureau a few years earlier and I wanted to follow in his footsteps,” Mack wrote in his 2009 book titled The County Sheriff. “But, this dream never happened as I had some problems with one of the Bureau's entrance tests.” He instead decided to join the Provo (Utah) Police Department in 1979, where he says he immediately became a “by-the-numbers jerk” whose primary goal was writing as many tickets as possible.
In 1982, Mack went undercover on the narcotics beat. “I had to live in the bars, drink, smoke, and act like the biggest partying druggie there ever was (something totally foreign to my conservative Mormon upbringing),” Mack wrote.
The assignment opened Mack’s eyes to what he saw as the injustice of the drug war and how it was targeting US citizens rather than organized crime groups. Disillusioned with the police force, in 1988 Mack moved home to Safford, Arizona, and successfully ran for Graham County sheriff. This was where the Constitutional Sheriff movement began.
Constitutional sheriffs claim their power comes directly from the founding fathers, even though there is no mention of sheriffs in the constitution. Many sheriffs—including Leaf—cite a quote from a Thomas Jefferson letter as their justification for the importance of the position: “The office of Sheriff [is] the most important of all the Executive offices of the county.” The line was indeed written by Jefferson, but the letter focuses on Jefferson's complaints about lifetime appointments of local judges and how they abuse their office, Pishko writes in her book.
The roots of the modern day Constitutional Sheriffs movement originate in the far-right Posse Comitatus group, which was formed in the early 1970s by William Potter Gale, a minister of a militant antisemitic, white-nationalist quasi-religion known as Christian Identity. Gale lionized the idea of the county sheriff as a protector of the ordinary citizen who had the power to call up posses or militias to root out communism, fight the desegregation of schools, and remove—or even execute—federal officials.
Over the years, the ideas popularized by Gale would inspire a variety of far-right groups, individuals, and movements, including Timothy McVeigh, who carried out the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995. Incidents like the sieges at Ruby Ridge and Waco in the early 1990s, the latter of which resulted in dozens of deaths, would be used as further evidence by figures like Mack who already believed the federal government was overstepping.
At the same time, Mack coordinated with the National Rifle Association (NRA) to be a plaintiff in a lawsuit challenging the Brady Bill, signed into law by then president Bill Clinton in 1993. The law mandated federal background checks on firearm purchasers—carried out by sheriffs. For sheriffs like Mack, who almost uniformly view Second Amendment gun rights as sacred, this was too far.
In 1997, the Supreme Court sided with Mack and the NRA, finding that the provisions in the bill that forced sheriffs to perform the background checks were unconstitutional. Mack was no longer a sheriff, but he catapulted to fame on the far-right for standing up to the government. He became a regular on the militia and pro-gun speaking circuits and even did PR work for Gun Owners of America, a more hard-line version of the NRA.
Over the next decade, Mack continued to mix in far-right circles. In the early 2010s, he became a board member of the Oath Keepers, an anti-government militia led by former Army paratrooper Stewart Rhodes, who is currently serving an 18-year sentence for his role in the January 6 Capitol riot. (Mack said he left the Oath Keepers around a decade ago when it became too militant, but CSPOA continued to support the group on its podcasts and newsletters in the years since the attack on the Capitol, helping raise money for Rhodes’ legal fund.)
In 2011, Mack founded the CSPOA to “take America back, Sheriff by Sheriff, County by County, State by State.” In 2014, Mack, together with members of the CSPOA and the Oath Keepers, was part of the now infamous armed standoff between the federal government and the Bundy family in Nevada.
The popularity of the CSPOA has waxed and waned over the course of its 13-year-old history, but the Covid-19 pandemic and protests following the murder of George Floyd in 2020 brought sheriffs back to the fold.
Mack reportedly encouraged sheriffs to ignore restrictions by federal and state officials meant to curb the spread of Covid; he also helped facilitate the spread of anti-vaccine disinformation as a board member of the conspiracy group America’s Frontline Doctors, a role for which he was, at one time, paid $20,000 a month. Mack, who to this day still refers to himself as “Sheriff Mack,” has not been a sheriff for almost 30 years. He unsuccessfully ran for other sheriff positions, and even governor of Utah and US senator in Arizona.
In interviews, Mack comes across as reasonable, repeatedly pointing out that the CSPOA is a nonviolent movement. But in the private members-only webinars he broadcasts weekly to his subscribers, he portrays a much darker side. In an August webinar, he said that his group was “obsessed” with monitoring next month’s vote and the “probability” that the election will be stolen as a result of the millions of illegal aliens being shipped into the country. In another webinar earlier this summer, Mack pushed an even darker conspiracy, that Democrats will allow Trump to win to instigate a civil war:
“The only way I see Trump winning is if they decide they want Trump to be in, that those who cheated last time are actually going to make sure he gets in,” Mack said. “Why do they want Trump in? Because they want the civil war to begin, and the violence that will be happening across this country will be horrendous.”
In September, Leaf appeared in Orlando, Florida, to discuss what extremism experts say is a “far-right blueprint for the next insurrection.” He was speaking at a conference organized by the Florida Foundation for Freedom, a group run by the CSPOA. Leaf was there to show other sheriffs how to take action.
The conference’s speaker list included a variety of election conspiracists with links to Trump—including far-right figure Mark Finchem, who is currently running for a seat in Arizona’s statehouse—and Christian nationalists, including Bill Cook, the founder of America’s Black Robe Regiment. Also speaking at the conference was Mary Flynn O’Neill, a director at America’s Future, the nonprofit run by her brother, Michael Flynn.
The event was organized by Bill Mitchell, the head of CSPOA’s Florida chapter, to promote a blueprint he created for constitutional sheriffs in other states to connect with like-minded election officials. The details of the plan were outlined in a seven-page document published on the foundation’s website, on CSPOA-headed paper.
“Take back the states, one constitutional sheriff at a time,” Mitchell said during a summer presentation about the plan.
When WIRED spoke to Mitchell, he denied that his plan was focused on disrupting the election. But the document clearly calls for citizen-led, local posses aligned with the CSPOA to recruit like-minded sheriffs, county commissioners, and supervisors of elections. Should those officials refuse to take action as directed, the plan states, allied sheriffs or posse-led grand juries will relieve them of their duties.
“Instead of a January 6–style centralized mass insurrection, these Florida activists developed a blueprint for a county-by-county-style revolt,” says Burghart, who analyzed the plan on IREHR’s website.
It’s not just Florida. In Las Vegas, Bob Songer, the sheriff in Klickitat County in Washington state, shared a 32-page guide with other sheriffs on how to recruit a posse, revealing that his own has 150 members. Leaf outlined how, when his Michigan election fraud investigation was going nowhere, he created his own “election investigation posse” consisting of two cybersecurity experts and a “clerk” to gather evidence.
Mack has also espoused his view that every sheriff should have his own posse. In a recent members-only webinar, viewed by WIRED, Mack and Sam Bushman, CEO of the CSPOA, wondered about the possibility of veterans temporarily moving to Leaf’s county in Michigan and being deputized to help his investigations into election fraud.
Mack’s views on the power of posses is deep-seated: “People get all upset when they hear about militias, but what’s wrong with it?” Mack reportedly said in the wake of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing at the NRA's national membership meeting, in which Mack was honored as the organization's law enforcement Officer of the Year. “I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute to call out my posse against the federal government if it gets out of hand.”
“There's no federal constitutional prohibition against a posse,” says Will Pelfrey, a professor of criminal justice and homeland security at Virginia Commonwealth University. “It's kind of terrifying, because you're empowering a lot of fringe people to do something that they probably shouldn't be doing.”
It’s not exactly clear how many constitutional sheriffs currently exist. Back in 2014, the group claimed it had 485 sheriffs signed up. In 2017, Mack told High Country News the group had 4,500 fee-paying members. By 2021, that number had risen to 10,000, Mack told VICE News, adding that his group had “trained 400 sheriffs.” Two years later, Mack told AZCIR that his groups had trained 1,000 sheriffs.
When WIRED asked Mack how many sheriffs were currently members of the CSPOA, he said 300 sheriffs could be described as “really solid.” He would not divulge how many paying members the group has.
While Mack and the CSPOA are the most prominent part of the Constitutional Sheriff movement, there are many other sheriffs who espouse the same beliefs. A 2022 survey conducted by the Marshall Project found that close to 50 percent of the sheriffs polled agreed with the constitutional sheriff mantra that “their own authority, within their counties, supersedes that of the state or federal government.”
Many sheriffs have also shied away from publicly aligning themselves with Mack, something the former sheriff readily admits. And yet Trumpworld, the election denial movement, and some of the most prominent far-right influencers are now seeking to team up with the sheriffs to influence the outcome of the US election.
In September, election denial group True the Vote told its followers that it was working with sheriffs to monitor drop boxes. While Mack told WIRED he hasn’t spoken to True the Vote about this specific plan, he has confirmed that the CSPOA is still actively working with True the Vote, though he declined to say in what capacity. Bushman also wouldn’t give details of their collaboration, but said: “It's more than just supporting what they're doing.”
In multiple conversations with Mack over the last six months, he repeatedly asserted that the CSPOA advocates only for nonviolent action in efforts to combat the alleged (and unproven) widespread voter fraud that is now the group’s driving force.
But Mack also maintains deep ties to Stewart Rhodes and the Oath Keepers and is publicly meeting with figures like Raiklin, who in August also posted an ominous threat on X referencing the recent assassination attempt against Trump: “In a duel, each side gets one shot. They missed 36 days ago. Now it's [our] turn.”
Earlier this month, the FBI and Department of Homeland Security warned that “election-related grievances” could motivate domestic extremists to engage in violence around the election.
In a recent phone conversation, Mack’s tone sounded more deflated than antagonistic; he admitted that he was “frustrated” that more sheriffs were not taking a more active role in policing elections, a practice that has led to voters feeling intimidated in the past.
“President Biden and his administration have just caused so much extra work for the sheriffs, it's really hard to get them to focus on elections,” says Mack. Every sheriff in this country should verify the security and integrity of the voting in their county. Every single one.”
Dar Leaf, for one, remains focused. As he prepares to police an election while continuing to investigate the last one, he is clear-eyed about where the threat is coming from: immigrants and Democrats. He claims that America has received “other countries’ garbage,” and as a result, he needs to act.
“Any police officer who thinks that machine is bad or something criminal is going on,” Leaf says, “we have a duty to seize it.”

A staunch Trump supporter, Leaf has spent the last four years investigating voter fraud in the 2020 federal election in Barry County—even though Donald Trump won decisively there. He has attempted to seize voting machines, pushed wild conspiracies, and ultimately became the focus of state investigations himself. In at least one case, Leaf appears to have inspired an election official to refuse to verify a vote—an ominous warning ahead of the 2024 US election. The conspiracies have also taken a physical turn: According to emails shared exclusively with WIRED by the nonprofit group American Oversight, Leaf has run a militia training course advising “potential jurors, homeschoolers, ladies and gentlemen” to “get a standard AR-15 type military grade weapon” and “500 rounds of ammo.” The emails also show that, ahead of the most consequential election in a generation, Leaf is in regular contact with a wide variety of election conspiracists. Leaf and a number of his colleagues in the Constitutional Sheriff movement say that they have “posses” to patrol polling stations, monitor for “illegal” immigrant voters, and help sheriffs respond to reports of fraud—or anything else—on election day. Mack, meanwhile, has been the driving force behind the modern day Constitutional Sheriffs movement. In the last six months, Mack’s group has mobilized across the US, building relationships with powerful figures close to Trump, training armed militias, and laying out plans for when Democrats inevitably, in their view, try to steal the election. They’re laying the groundwork to challenge the outcome of next month’s vote—and recruiting sheriffs to help them assert control if Trump loses. “In a swing state like Michigan or Wisconsin, where the difference in the state's outcome is 50,000 to 70,000 votes, if a sheriff becomes an obstacle, then that could undermine that state's credibility, says Will Pelfrey, a professor of criminal justice and homeland security at Virginia Commonwealth University. “In a swing state, that could undermine the entire national election.” A WIRED investigation reviewed hundreds of documents and conducted dozens of interviews over the course of the last six months. We found that the Constitutional Sheriff movement believes it is the last line of defense to protect American elections. At conferences in Las Vegas and Florida, as well as online in group chats and Zoom meetings, their discussions often turn to how sheriffs can utilize their unique power in order to, they say, safeguard democracy. For years, sheriffs like Leaf who believe they have unlimited power to interpret and enforce the laws of the land have operated on the fringes. But as the election approaches, they have been increasingly empowered by those close to Trump and are more committed than ever to ensuring a Republican victory up and down the ballot. At all costs.

on reduced speed mobile internet
it is not possible to set my expectations for this service BELOW "if I have 5 bars of 5g internet, google maps should function, albeit slowly"
because that is not currently true I must conclude that some form of fraud is happening, either my Internet is being fraudulently throttled as a punitive measure for being poor, or the ISP in question was never capable of serving internet to such a wide demographic and so Must reduce prices, increase efficiency, or lower average speeds as needed. i tend to lean towards the former situation rather than the latter.
i believe att is perfectly capable of making a profit serving full speed for $60 and 1/10th speed for $30 a month.
the current situation is more like 1/16th-1/1000th speed depending.
i cannot be made to expect that. those speeds are NONSENSICALLY low. those speeds fall beneath the current minimum speed limit of the Internet.
sites I am accessing are reasonably deciding that I must not actually HAVE Internet because 20kbps is such an otherwise inexplicably low number, what else could they assume.
they must assume I am having SEVERE Internet connectivity issues because what other situation would produce a ping of 90ms, upload speed of 3.3Mbps, and a download speed of 3.3kbps. those numbers do not make sense otherwise.
and so, given that I'm on a federal connectivity plan for the Explicit purpose of ensuring those in poverty have basic minimum functioning internet, it could be cleanly argued that cell phone companies like T-Mobile, att, etc, are meaningfully defrauding the United States government.
that is not a tenable position. policy must change, NOT my expectations

Mozambique's capital Maputo awoke to wreckage on Friday as protests overnight turned violent following the ruling party Frelimo's re-election after 49 years in power.
Hundreds of opposition supporters demonstrated, rejecting what they called a ballot "stolen" by a "corrupt" electoral commission, which on Thursday announced that Frelimo's candidate Daniel Chapo had won the October 9 election with 71 percent of the vote.
As the election authority, widely accused of acting in the ruling party's favour, was announcing the results, crowds gathered in multiple cities.
Protests escalated, with rioters setting fire to tyres to block avenues in Maputo and scaling Frelimo's election billboards and destroying them.
Some also threw stones at riot police, who fired tear gas to disperse them, an AFP reporter saw.
Chapo, a 47-year-old former provincial governor with no experience in national government, was little known before his surprise nomination as Frelimo's candidate. He will take over from President Filipe Nyusi in January.
Opposition leader Venancio Mondlane -- who has declared himself the winner, claimed irregularities and urged demonstrations -- officially won just over 20 percent.
"We absolutely reject these results," said Mondlane, during a Facebook live broadcast Thursday evening.
"They do not reflect the will of the people," he added, calling the political situation in the southern African country "rotten, doctored and fake".
Several cities saw isolated incidents take place overnight.
In northern Nampula, one person died in clashes between law enforcement and protesters, police said.
In Maputo, demonstrators vehemently opposed the results.
"This country must be led by Venancio," a protester who declined to give his name told AFP.
"We did not vote for these leeches, we did not vote for this man," he said, referring to the triumphant Chapo. "We are tired of all this."
Poll observers have deplored concerning irregularities in the electoral process while the Catholic Church has gone so far as to warn of at times "foul" fraud.
A European Union poll observer mission earlier this month noted "net favouritism" in favour of Frelimo.
EU officials have raised concerns about the polls' legitimacy, noting "irregularities during counting and unjustified alteration of election results at polling station and district level".
They also stressed that the numbers did not "add up" across about a third of recounts.
More than 17 million out of a population of 33 million were called to vote on October 9.
That figure was surprising as the median age of Mozambicans is 17 and the legal voting age is 18, experts previously said.
A total of 104 percent of the adult population of voting age was registered on electoral rolls, the EU mission stressed.
Chapo, 47, will be the first president not to have been a fighter during the 16-year civil war between Frelimo and Renamo that ended in 1992, which claimed around a million lives.
While Renamo has traditionally been the main opposition group, the emergence of Mondlane and the Podemos party was a novel development in this election.

Ultimate Guide for Increasing Your ATM Withdrawal Limits on Cash App
As more people shift towards digital financial platforms, Cash App has gained significant popularity for its simple and convenient approach to managing money. Whether you're sending money, buying Bitcoin, or withdrawing cash, Cash App provides multiple functionalities that cater to both personal and business needs. One of the key features users rely on is the Cash App card, which allows them to withdraw cash from ATMs just like any traditional debit card.
However, just like any financial service, there are limitations to how much you can withdraw from an ATM. Understanding the Cash App withdrawal limit is crucial for anyone using the app regularly, mainly if you rely on ATM withdrawals for daily financial needs. In this blog, we'll provide a comprehensive guide to Cash App ATM withdrawal limits, explain how they work, and share tips on how you can increase these limits to suit your financial needs.
What Is the Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limit?
The Cash App ATM withdrawal limit refers to the maximum amount of money you can withdraw from an ATM using your Cash App card. Like many banking services, Cash App sets specific daily and weekly limits to protect against fraud and ensure the safety of your account. Understanding these limits helps you better plan your financial transactions, especially when you need quick access to cash.
Cash App Withdrawal Limit Per Day: For users wondering about the Cash App withdrawal limit per day, the standard daily cap is set at $310. This limit means you can withdraw up to $310 in 24 hours, regardless of how many transactions you perform at different ATMs. If you hit this limit, you'll need to wait 24 hours before withdrawing more cash.
Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limit Per Week: In addition to the daily limit, there is also a weekly cap on how much you can withdraw. The Cash App weekly withdrawal limit is currently $1,000. This limit is calculated on a rolling 7-day basis. For instance, if you withdraw $300 on a Tuesday, that amount will reset the following Tuesday, allowing you to withdraw more cash.
Cash App Card ATM Withdrawal Limits: How They Work?
The Cash App card ATM withdrawal limit is tied to the physical card that is linked to your Cash App balance. You can use this card at any ATM that accepts Visa, which makes it convenient to access your funds in cash. However, because Cash App is not a traditional bank, its ATM limits are often lower than those offered by central banks.
The limits mentioned above (i.e., $310 per day and $1,000 per week) apply to withdrawals made at ATMs using your Cash App card. Additionally, keep in mind that there are fees associated with each withdrawal, including:
How to Increase ATM Limits on Cash App?
If you find that the current Cash App ATM withdrawal limits are too restrictive for your financial needs, you may wonder if there's a way to increase them. The good news is that the Cash App allows you to request higher withdrawal limits, but this process requires you to verify your identity.
Steps to Increase Cash App Withdrawal Limit
Open Cash App: Log into your Cash App account on your mobile device.
Access Your Profile: Tap on your profile icon located at the top right corner of the screen.
Verify Your Identity: To increase your ATM limits, the Cash App will prompt you to verify your identity. You'll need to provide personal details such as:
Your full legal name.
Date of birth.
The last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN).
In some cases, Cash App may also request a photo ID for further verification.
Wait for Approval: Once your identity is verified, Cash App may increase your ATM withdrawal limits. The new limits will depend on your account activity and other factors that Cash App uses to assess risk.
Other Cash App Limits to Be Aware Of
While this guide focuses on ATM withdrawal limits, Cash App imposes other transaction limits that are worth noting, especially if you're a frequent user of the app. Here are some of the critical limits:
Cash App Sending Limit: When you first sign up for Cash App, you're limited to sending up to $250 per week without verifying your account. After verification, this limit increases significantly to $7,500 per week, giving you more flexibility to send money when needed.
Cash App Receiving Limit: Unverified users can receive up to $1,000 in 30 days. Once your account is verified, there are no receiving limits, which is particularly useful for users who manage larger transactions or use Cash App for business.
Cash App Transfer Limit: The Cash App transfer limit for sending money from your Cash App balance to an external bank account is capped at $2,500 per week for verified users. This limit is more than sufficient for most personal transactions, but if you need to transfer more significant amounts, you'll need to plan your transfers over multiple weeks.
What are the Cash App ATM Withdrawal Fees?
As mentioned earlier, each time you withdraw money from an ATM using your Cash App card, a fee of $2.50 is charged by Cash App. Additionally, ATMs may impose their usage fees, depending on the bank or operator. These fees can add up quickly, especially if you're withdrawing smaller amounts frequently.
How to Avoid ATM Fees on Cash App?
If you're looking for ways to minimise the cost of ATM withdrawals, Cash App offers a workaround:
Direct Deposit Setup: If you set up direct deposits of $300 or more into your Cash App account, the platform will reimburse you for up to three ATM withdrawals every 31 days. This is a great way to avoid the $2.50 Cash App fee, although you may still be subject to third-party ATM fees.
FAQs: Cash App Withdrawal Limit
1. What Is the Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limit Per Day?
The Cash App ATM withdrawal limit per day is $310. You can withdraw this amount across multiple ATM transactions, but you will only be able to reach this limit within 24 hours.
2. How Much Can I Withdraw from a Cash App ATM Per Week?
The Cash App weekly withdrawal limit is $1,000. This limit operates on a rolling basis, meaning it resets seven days after each withdrawal.
3. How Can I Increase My Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limit?
You can increase Cash App withdrawal limit by verifying your identity. This involves providing personal information such as your full legal name, date of birth, and Social Security Number. After verification, you may be eligible for higher withdrawal limits.
4. What Are the Cash App ATM Fees?
Cash App charges a $2.50 fee for each ATM withdrawal. Additionally, ATM operators may charge extra fees. If you set up direct deposits of $300 or more into your Cash App account, you can get reimbursed for up to three ATM fees every 31 days.
5. Why Is My Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limit So Low?
Cash App sets relatively low default limits for ATM withdrawals to minimise fraud and protect your account. If the current limit is too low for your needs, verifying your identity is the best way to request an increase.
Conclusion
Understanding the Cash App withdrawal limit is essential for effectively managing your funds, especially if you rely on the platform for frequent ATM withdrawals. The standard limits—$310 per day and $1,000 per week—are sufficient for most casual users, but they may feel restrictive for those who need regular access to cash. Fortunately, by verifying your account, you can increase your withdrawal limits and unlock additional features, such as higher sending and receiving caps.
Additionally, being aware of ATM fees and setting up direct deposits can help you avoid unnecessary charges and make the most of your Cash App experience. Whether you're a new user or a seasoned Cash App cardholder, knowing your limits and how to increase them can help you navigate your financial transactions with ease.

What is Cash App Sending Limit After Verification?
Cash App is a popular mobile payment platform used by millions to send and receive money effortlessly. While it’s convenient, users face certain limits on the amount they can send, especially before their accounts are verified. Once your account is verified, these limits increase significantly, making it essential for users to understand how the limits work and how verification can benefit them.
Importance of Verification
Cash App’s verification process is crucial because it ensures the safety and security of its users. Verifying your account helps Cash App comply with financial regulations and adds a layer of protection, reducing the risk of fraud. But beyond security, one of the main reasons users choose to verify their accounts is to increase the sending limits.

After you verify your Cash App account, the Cash App sending limit significantly increases. Before verification, users can send up to $250 within a seven-day period. However, once verified, this limit increases to $7,500 per week. This jump makes it much easier to handle larger transactions, whether you’re splitting bills, paying rent, or transferring money to friends and family.
Difference between Verified and Unverified Accounts
The primary difference between verified and unverified Cash App accounts is the Cash App sending limit:
Unverified Accounts: Limited to sending $250 per week and receiving $1,000 per month.

In addition to higher Cash App transfer limits, verified accounts can also withdraw larger amounts and use Cash App’s investing and Bitcoin services.

Verifying your Cash App account is simple. Here’s how you can do it:
Open the Cash App on your mobile device.
Click on your profile icon in the top-right corner.
Scroll down and select “Personal.”
Enter your full legal name, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN).
Submit the information and wait for Cash App to complete the verification process, which typically takes 24-48 hours.
Once verified, you’ll receive a confirmation, and your Cash App sending limits will be increased.
Benefits of Verifying Your Cash App Account
Verification comes with several perks beyond higher Cash App sending limits:
Higher Receiving Limits: After verification, there is no Cash App limit on the amount you can receive.

To increase your Cash App sending limit, complete the account verification process as outlined earlier. Once verified, your limit will jump from $250 to $7,500 per week. If you need to send more than this amount, you may need to reach out to Cash App support for further assistance.
Factors Affecting Cash App Sending Limits
Several factors can influence your sending limit on Cash App:
Verification Status: Unverified accounts have lower limits than verified ones.
Type of Transaction: Peer-to-peer (P2P) transfers may have different limits than business or merchant transactions.
Account Age: Newer accounts may have stricter limits until they establish a history of transactions.
App Usage: Frequent users with a solid transaction history may see their limits increased over time.
Sending Limits for Different Types of Transactions
Cash App imposes various limits based on the type of transaction. For example:
Peer-to-Peer Transfers: Verified accounts can send up to $7,500 per week.
Merchant Transactions: Limits may vary based on the merchant and transaction type.
International Transfers: Currently, Cash App supports transfers within the U.S. and U.K., but limits may apply to cross-border payments.

Venmo: Allows up to $6,999.99 per week for verified accounts.
PayPal: Offers up to $10,000 per transaction for verified users.
While PayPal may allow for larger single transactions, Cash App’s simplicity and user-friendly interface make it a popular choice for smaller, frequent transfers.

Open Cash App and navigate to your profile.
Scroll down to “Limits.”
Here, you’ll see a breakdown of your sending and receiving limits, including weekly and monthly amounts.

How to Increase My Cash App Limit without Verifying My Account?

United States intelligence officials have been quietly issuing warnings to government agencies all summer about a rising threat of extremist violence tied to the 2024 presidential election, including plots to destroy bins full of paper ballots and promote "lone wolf" attacks against election facilities throughout the country.
In a series of reports between July and September, analysts at the Department of Homeland Security warned of a “heightened risk” of extremists carrying out attacks in response to the race. Copies of the reports, first reported by WIRED, describe efforts by violent groups to provoke attacks against election infrastructure and spread calls for the assassinations of lawmakers and law enforcement agents.
Last month, the agency’s intelligence office emphasized in a report that “perceptions of voter fraud” had risen to become a primary “trigger” for the “mobilization to violence.” This is particularly true, the report says, among groups working to leverage the “concept of a potential civil war.” Fears about “crimes by migrants or minorities” are among other top “triggers,” it says.
The documents show that DHS alerted dozens of agencies this summer to online chatter indicating potential attacks on election drop boxes—secured receptacles used in more than 30 states to collect mail-in voter ballots. The text highlights the efforts of an unnamed group to crowdsource information about “incendiary and explosive materials” capable of destroying the boxes and ballots. An extensive list of household mixtures and solvents, which are said to render voter ballots “impossible to process,” was also compiled by members of the group, the report says, and openly shared online.
“The United States remains in a heightened, dynamic threat environment and we continue to share information with our law enforcement partners about the threats posed by domestic violent extremists in the context of the 2024 election,” a spokesperson from DHS tells WIRED. "Violence has no place in our politics, and DHS continues to work with our partners to evaluate and mitigate emerging threats that may arise from domestic or foreign actors. DHS, through CISA, is also helping election officials and election infrastructure partners bolster resilience in their cyber, physical, and operational security. The Department continues to advise federal, state, and local partners to remain vigilant to potential threats and encourages the public to report any suspicious activity to local authorities."
The FBI, which is on a distribution list for several of the reports, declined to comment.
The reports were first obtained by Property of the People, a nonprofit focused on transparency and national security, under open records law. The reports contain details about how to commit crimes and avoid law enforcement, which WIRED is not publishing.
Wendy Via, cofounder and president of the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE), says the conclusion reached by DHS matches the consensus of experts in the field: “Election denialism is going to be the primary motivator—if there is going to be violence.”
For decades, a growing number of states have adopted election drop boxes as a way to offer voters a dedicated, secure, and convenient way to submit voter ballots ahead of elections. Today, as many as 35 states allow drop boxes in some capacity, though a handful—nearly all southern—have outlawed their use, mostly over baseless claims about fraud and ballot stuffing. While drop boxes are no less secure than other forms of voting, Republicans have scrambled to block their use in key states, including Wisconsin, where Donald Trump blasted legislation expanding drop boxes as “only good for Democrats and cheating.” Via points to the Republican-led campaign aimed at banning and restricting access to election drop boxes in Wisconsin as a flash point for election denialism and possible violence.
The obsession with the otherwise mundane practice of dropping off ballots prior to election day stems in large part from the widely discredited film 2,000 Mules. The “documentary” depicts a shadowy network of operatives attempting to sway the 2020 election by stuffing ballots in Joe Biden’s favor; the film’s publisher, a conservative media company, has since issued an apology.
While the film’s evidence turned out to be false, it nevertheless provoked a surge of intimidation from far-right groups targeting drop-box voters and the officials defending their use. For the November election, some groups have committed to fundraising in order to surveil the boxes around the clock over public livestream. Others have hosted events near the locations to push conspiracy theories about immigrants. Election denial groups such as True the Vote, meanwhile, are working with myriad others across the country, as WIRED reported this summer, and are establishing a web of operations for waging legal warfare in the aftermath of the vote—if Trump fails to retake the White House a second time.
Spurious claims of voter fraud have remained a mainstay of the former president’s reelection efforts, with Trump preemptively and baselessly claiming that should he lose in November, the election will have been rigged. Claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen have been exhaustively investigated and debunked by countless judges and state election officials across the country. Property of the People executive director Ryan Shapiro says that though DHS does not mention the political leanings of the subjects in its reports, he believes “the documents make plain that US intelligence is bracing for election- and immigration-related violence from Trump's MAGA minions.”
The concerns of DHS today are reminiscent of warnings shared by the agency two years ago during the midterm elections. Similar bulletins leaked then showing fears among federal security officials that extremists would mount an attack, threaten poll workers, or sabotage infrastructure. The concerns proved largely unwarranted, outside of scattered instances of armed men in paramilitary gear showing up to “monitor” ballot boxes across Arizona—an effort quietly spearheaded in part by True the Vote, which helped make 2,000 mules, involving militias that included the American Patriots Three Percent, an anti-government group.
The election threats flagged in the reports by DHS appear to be growing more extreme over time. No longer restricted to aggressive surveillance and loitering outside polling locations, the risks associated by DHS with election fraud conspiracies today more closely resemble traditional acts of terrorism.
There are, however, some deterrents. The arrests and prosecutions of rioters involved in the January 6 attack on the United States Capitol building are credited by DHS, as well as groups such as GPAHE, with stifling much of the enthusiasm that far-rights groups once held for turning out in big numbers.
“In my lifetime of working in civil rights, the January 6 arrests are the only time I’ve ever seen an arrest or prosecution work as a deterrent,” says Via. “They really do not want to go to jail.”

How to Increase Your Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limits?
Managing cash flow effectively is crucial in today’s fast-paced world, and Cash App offers a convenient way to access cash through ATM withdrawals. However, users often encounter limitations that can affect how much they can withdraw at any given time. Understanding these limits and learning how to increase them can significantly enhance your ability to access cash when needed. In this comprehensive guide, we'll break down the ATM limits on Cash App, including exact numbers, and provide actionable steps for increasing these limits.
Understanding Cash App ATM Limits
Cash App sets various limits on ATM withdrawals to ensure security and regulatory compliance. Here’s an overview of the different types of ATM limits you might encounter:
1. Cash App ATM Limit
The Cash App ATM limit is the maximum amount you can withdraw from an ATM using your Cash App card. This limit helps to prevent fraud and ensure security for your transactions.
2. Cash App ATM Limit Per Day
The daily ATM withdrawal limit is the maximum amount you can withdraw from ATMs in a single day. For most Cash App users, the daily limit is set at $250. This means you can withdraw up to $250 worth of cash from an ATM in one day.
3. Cash App ATM Limit Per Week
The Cash App weekly ATM withdrawal limit is the total amount you can withdraw from ATMs over a week. Generally, this limit is set at $1,000. Therefore, you can withdraw up to $1,000 worth of cash from ATMs in one week.
4. Cash App ATM Limit After Verification
Once your Cash App account is verified, you may be eligible for higher withdrawal limits. Verified accounts often have increased limits, such as $1,000 per day and $3,000 per week. Verification typically involves submitting identification documents and other personal information.
5. Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limit
